Spinning through the Summer

Happy, happy Saturday! The summer is flying by. Today is the beginning of a new challenge over at Imagine That! Creative Playground. For the month of August it's all about summer. We are definitely in the dog days of summer around here: hot, humid and pop up showers every day! So for my challenge card I decided to cool off a bit and try a new technique that I'd never tried before: a spinner card. It took me a couple of tries to get this just right but I think I got it.

I used the set Beach Floaty Girl, colored her with Copics and fussy cut her out. She's embellished with Diamond Stickles in several spots on the image. The sentiment is also from the same set. The background paper is Beach Combers Digi Paper. I embellished the waves with Diamond Stickles too. I wish I had video capability. She is just adorable spinning across the page. My husband and SIL were so impressed with the card's inactivity. I hope you'll join us over at the Playground and have some summertime fun!
I am entering these challenges:

super cute! yeah, where has the time gone? i'm still looking for april!!! but i'm also about ready for fall. if it could stay spring and fall and get rid of summer and winter, i'd be one very happy camper!!!

What a little cutie! I have never made a spinner card but would like to try. Yours turned out super! Sounds like you have been a busy little bee with the baby shower and getting baby things made. Isn't it fun! I love making things for Ruby. So happy for you!Pamscrap-n-sewgranny.blogspot.com
